General Thoughts I committed to attending the Neurodata Erasmus Mundus program! I also found out I was selected to volunteer in Ukraine in June with Code.X. I was originally waitlisted so I’m super excited to volunteer with the program. I went to a few training sessions for it this month, which I hope will help with navigating teaching in a high school class.
